:) Try it yourself and click it - Send Feedback looks ok in the menu, but once
you click it you end up on a web page with several diverse links, and two of
them, "Create a bug report" and "File an enhancement request", take the user to
the Bugzilla login page (What's that?), which is not an inviting place to
proceed with such labels as "Bugzilla – Log in to Bugzilla" and "Bugzilla needs
a legitimate login and password to continue".
The moment the user leaves that Bugzilla page, you've just lost a conversion,
and the bug is left unreported.

I'd say the opposite - I wrote down the tasks above with the express intention
of making it as simple as possible to report a bug without actually knowing how
to report a bug by a user who never reported a bug in their entire life. This
is the rationale for making the user fill the bug report in an internal UI as
opposed to Bugzilla. I argue that Bugzilla represents too many hurdles to
getting a bug reported by individuals who are neither paid nor enthusiastic to
do so.
